ABSTRACT:
An apparatus and methods for feature selection and classifier builder are disclosed. The feature selection apparatus allows for removal of bias features. The classifier builder apparatus allows building a classifier using non-biased features. The feature selection methods disclosed teach how to remove bias features. The classifier builder methods disclosed teach how to build a classifier with non-biased features.
